It is vital when you are using brushes and combs to make sure they are cleaned regularly. One of the best ways to get rid of the dirt and residue is to: dissolve a tablespoon of washing soda in a basin of water, add a little antiseptic and then tap the brush or comb briskly in it. Afterwards, rinse with clean water.
It is better to remove the tangles with a big toothed comb, starting at the ends. Over-zealous brushing can snap the hair like a rubber band. The best styling results are obtained when using a comb to ease out tangles and brush to style the hair into shape while using the blow dryer.
So what really happens is when you notice a grey hair?
You pull it out, right! The action of pulling out the hair may rupture the hair follicle, and the replacement hair that eventually grows in will take longer to regenerate. Then another grey hair will begin to grow next to it. When the hair that was originally pulled out grows back, you have two grey hairs. I hear all the time that people feel like they have to pull out the grey hairs they see. Some people say that they will not do that again. Then others will just keep on pulling the grey hairs out. Oh well!
